this blog is dedicated to the bucky lab from the TU Delft faculty of Architecture. Within the mastercourse we design, develop and at the end build architecture and building construction related prototypes. Its a "get your hands dirty" approach in which the students learn how to translate concepts from sketch into working prototypes. We try to live the spirit of buckminster fuller: what ever you can imagine, you can also build!

Building weeks Day 5

We are writing day 5 of our building weeks, and today was a very special day for the lightvan project.
The expert for the stickers arrived and after a couple of hours the pale white van transformed into a mobile light lab. Amazing what a good design can do !

From now on the truck is really something special, and will draw much more attention ad will show whats going on inside the car. Our Dr. Bucky lab always said: Everything is better with a sticker …so true !

The rest of the teams are doing also well and Thijs Asselbergs and Anne Snijders who joined for a short chat about the Beachhouse project were amazed about the progress the groups did.

We have also noticed the first folding test of one of the cardboard projects, up to now very impressive.
